Sentinel-3A

From today, new marine data and products from the Copernicus Sentinel-3A satellite are being distributed simultaneously to African and European users.

These new data and products (e.g. Sea Surface Height, Ocean Colour and Sea Surface temperature) will ensure improved management of fishing zones and safety at sea for fishermen. But also, these data will improve the forecast of harmful algae bloom and coastal protection.
